a plan that orders events by time

Schedule (noun) means: a plan that orders events by time. It emerges from plan, time: the plan arranges events into an ordered sequence across time. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 14, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
